How to identify a specific avatar. idAvatar?

Hi

I need a kind of "idAvatar" to be able to allow or not allow certain actions. An example: wanting to use VR in the field of education if I am the teacher I can for example use a teleport and the students cannot. Is this possibility? or again if I want to do gamification always for the field of education I should be able to assign game objectives and have a ranking of the participants. I can think of doing it only if I can recover an idAvatar or something like that. How i can do?

 

Thank you in advance

  • Hey all, releasing soon will be a visual scripting node to gather the avatar id, as well as the avatar transform (position, gaze, body direction). Be on the lookout for the rollout!

    Thank you kaipiroska. Good idea "the lock" 🙂 Could you be so kind as to give me an example of Cloud Scripting to get partecipant's name? Thank you

      Can you figure it out from this snippet?

      var participantargs = args.Participant;
      participants += participantargs.DisplayName + ", ";
      _logger.LogInformation(participantargs.ToString());

        Thank you
        I need to study more about Cloud Scripting to get what I need.
        I'm looking at Meta Horizon World, and they definitely have built core functions for goal setting, scoring, and leaderboards. This is what experiences are built around.
        So I hope that Mesh can also use these features from Visual Scripting.

    You can get participant's name with Cloud Scripting and I am myself looking for information how to do it with Visual Scripting.

    As a workaround I have a combination lock for staff to access backstage.
